OverviewThis is a lexicographic work on Cayuga, an Iroquoian language spoken in southern Ontario at Six Nations of the Grand River. The dictionary contains over 3000 entries, including 1000 verb forms and nouns, extensive cross-referencing, thematic appendices that highlight cultural references and provide 1600 further entries, and a short grammatical sketch. Entries in the main dictionary are organized by bases, which should make the dictionary especially helpful to those learning Cayuga as a second language.
